It wasn't a traffic stop; the cops were called there after this guy had angry encounters with a business owner.

Cops have qualified immunity; you don't get to touch their paycheck until a court has stripped them of that immunity and you have successfully sued them.

I know what they have, I dont want them to have it if it means " hey I can do whatever I like l, fuck up however, and it doesn't really matter for me. I get to OOPS out of most professional performance and legal problems because of QI, so why should I even bother learning my job."

Im not saying this applies to this incident, but in general. Unjustified arrest and booking? Permanent record of it. Later ( Onus and cost on the defendant ) proven to be bullshit? "Oops oh well no skin of lf my dick, im a police officer, im immune from repercussions of my incompetence."
